GoPro HERO3+ Silver Edition

The GoPro HERO 3+ Silver Edition was released in the fall of 2013. Since then, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge, but the model has not lost its relevance at all and is being sold with might and main in various stores.

Middle class

The characteristics of the action camera indicate that it belongs to the middle class. It can be safely called a kind of workhorse that provides high-quality results under difficult shooting conditions. The camera shoots videos in FullHD at up to 60 fps, and in HD resolution, the frame rate is doubled, which allows you to slow down the picture without losing details.

Classic design

Visually, the camcorder for active filming practically does not differ from the previous and subsequent lines. This is still the same rectangular brick made of strong soft-touch plastic that does not slip out of your hands. The camera is traditionally supplied with an underwater box for filming at a depth of up to 40 m.

Quality Recording

In terms of video quality, the action camera only raises complaints when shooting in low light conditions — there are a lot of various artifacts and noise in the image. In daylight, the picture is moderately saturated and sharp, although somewhat worse than that of its own successor (GoPro HERO4 Silver Edition). Photos are also given to the camera without problems — its sensor is capable of producing 10-megapixel images with a burst speed of up to 10 fps. The minimum focus distance for both stills and video is 18 cm.

Remote sighting

Since the GoPro engineers did not bother to endow their creation with a screen, you will have to endorse during the shooting process and set the necessary recording parameters using a smartphone connected via Wi-Fi. It is worth considering the fact that the video can be broadcast on the screen of a mobile gadget with a slight delay. Clips are recorded on a microSD memory card up to 64 GB.

Optimal choice

GoPro HERO3+ Silver Edition is the choice of those who are not ready to overpay for top models of the 4th generation. The action camera loses to them in the maximum video recording resolution, but it is practically not inferior in performance and battery life.
